nelson mandela will be remembered for many things. he will be, certainly, remembered, for no way he led his dignity, as extraordinary understanding , not just tough how to bring democracy and freedom to his beloved south africa, but how important it was that he first brought freedom to himself. as i spent time with him starting in 1992 and tell them just in the last year-and-a-half , i was always struck by the extraordinary depth of his self knowledge, of his awareness about how hard it is to live a life of integrity, of service, but to combine within oneself the contradictions that he lived with, a lawyer and a freedom fighter, a prisoner and a leader , man of anger and forgiveness has so captured the hearts of people not only in his own country, but as we are seeing with the outpouring of response to his death, people around the world. i only hope that as we both morning and celebrate the passing of this universally recognized and beloved figure, that we remember, he became that through an enormous amount of hard work on himself. th
